Synopsis
Rambaldo Tramontana is the protagonist; a count who went into battle backed by the French. He returns to Matera to take revenge once he is victorious, but the city is deserted and he begins to commit abuses and violence. Filiberto, his perfidious squire, thinks he can marry his daughter, Greta. She discovers that Paolo, the son of Duke Bresci, is not dead as wrongly communicated. She falls in love with him while the young man vows to avenge his father, who was forced into exile by Count Tramontana, and tries to free his daughter, Gisella, who engaged to Count Mario Del Balzo. Paolo, aided by reinforcements, manages to conquer Matera while Rambaldo and Filiberto are killed after a bloody sword fight. Once the city is liberated, two weddings are celebrated.[3][failed verification]
